Looking for a better way to monetize your Discord server than Whop? You’re not alone.

Lots of creators are starting to feel frustrated with Whop’s high fees, limited crypto support, and the fact that you’re pretty much locked into their platform once you’re set up. If you’ve been feeling the same, good news — there’s a better way.

Let me introduce you to Subscord — a simple, crypto-native way to run paid Discord communities that puts you in control. You can accept crypto directly to your wallet, fully automate role management, and keep 99% of your revenue.

Let’s break it all down and show you why so many creators are switching from Whop to Subscord.

So, what is Whop?

Whop’s a platform that helps creators monetize their Discord servers (and other digital products) by letting you create paid tiers and manage everything from one place. Sounds useful, right?

It is — until you start digging into the fine print.

While it works for a lot of people, many creators are realizing Whop comes with some serious downsides: high fees, weak crypto options, and platform lock-in that can limit your flexibility.

Let’s take a closer look.

Why people are looking for a better alternative to Whop

You’ve spent time and energy building your community — it should work for you, not the other way around. But here’s what’s pushing creators to look elsewhere:

1. The fees are higher than you think

Whop says they charge a 3% fee, but it’s not that simple:

If someone finds your product through Whop’s marketplace, that fee jumps to 30%
Add payment processing fees on top, and total fees can hit 40%
Even the “revenue after fees” number in their dashboard doesn’t always match what you actually get
Some users had to ask support for a breakdown — only to find way more fees than expected

Bottom line: it’s hard to predict what you’re actually earning. That’s a big problem if you’re trying to build a sustainable business.

2. Limited crypto support

A lot of online communities prefer using crypto. It’s fast, global, private — and in some cases, the only option users have.

But with Whop, crypto payments aren’t really a focus. It often involves extra steps or integrations. If you want something truly crypto-friendly, it’s not ideal.

3. You're locked into their platform

Whop is an all-in-one platform — but that also means you’re stuck inside their ecosystem:

They control your data
They can change fees or policies any time
If your account gets flagged or suspended, you could lose everything overnight
You have limited control over how things look or work

Not exactly the kind of flexibility you want when running a community business.

Subscord vs Whop: Quick breakdown

| Feature | Whop | Subscord | | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | | Platform Fees | Up to 40% (3% + 30% marketplace + processing) | Just 1% on crypto payments | | Crypto Support | Limited / requires workarounds | 100+ tokens, full on-chain payments | | Payouts | Delayed, via platform | Instant, to your wallet | | Platform Lock-in | Yes | No – you keep full control | | Customization | Limited to their UI & rules | Fully customizable subscriptions | | Data Ownership | Stays on Whop | 100% yours | | Discoverability | Whop Marketplace (but competitive) | Your own branded store |

Whop fees can stack up fast

Keep in mind — that "3%" Whop fee? It’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Here’s what you might really be paying:

30% cut if the user comes from Whop’s marketplace
Extra processing fees on top (Stripe, PayPal, crypto gateways)
Even direct checkout links (outside the marketplace) come with additional platform fees
Some users reported up to 40–45% total fees after digging into their payouts

That’s not just eating into your margins — it’s potentially cutting your income in half.

With Subscord, there’s just a flat 1% fee, and payments go straight to your wallet. No hidden charges. No surprises.
